I don't doubt for a minute that if you and your partner have got the skills you could make it work - although I wonder if problems with property prices in the UK won't cause a slowdown in the number relocating for a while. If you are good with french that would be a big plus when you come to negotiating with estate agents, notaires, builders etc Good luck with it and keep us informed! Hi

I was mooching around looking for information on renovation/building etc in France. My partner and I have been considering the move and wondering about the possibilities. Your comments about English builders were very interesting - my partner being a builder/carpenter of some repute who lovingly restores buildings here in the UK. This may sound quite mad but my search today was prompted by a dream. I was telling my partner (Martin) who laughed loudly but told me to look at what was out there anyway. I dreamed we were running a company providing a total package for those wanting to re-locate and renovate a property in France - we found properties, arranged viewings, costed and carried out the work! Your website has certainly given me more to think about and who knows, maybe the dream was a glimpse of things to come! This is my first (and not the last!) visit to your website.
